Qantas announcement today
Had a heads up from the press. At 1100 The Qantas CEO will be holding a press conference. Word is spreading that it will be a "very sobering announcement".
Maybe a CEO retiring for health reasons or closure of another Heavy Maintenance facility.

When all is said and done, i.e brand damage, pax going elsewhere, financial losses increasing and massive job cuts, no doubt the unions will reject the contributory negligence argument that will surface thereafter. It takes years to find good customers and seconds to lose them! and what are the unions doing?? telling pax to go elsewhere

Nothing to do with mismanagement at all. And the $500m profit just never seems to get mentioned! They're STRUGGLING, due to the Big Bad Unions.

Live on 9 now.
I think AJ just said, "we have a positive relationship with our 15 unions".
But he did positively state, "our TWU staff are paid 12% more than Virgin and the rest."
He also claims that they (I'm assuming he means his management team) have been trying to negotiate with all striking sectors and unions alike.
"We have tried to set up meetings with FWA and the unions together".

The misinformation is astounding.
Can someone in AIPA please confirm once and for all for us that they are not seeking the same pay for jetstar pilots? Once again he has stated this.
Where the heck is the pilots union making rebuttals once and for all.
Also ALEA SP If these aircraft are simply broken let the media know this to destroy any ground he gains from this.

But he thanked the staff and said how great they've been. Interesting...
So that statement alone is admitting that staff are a vital resource, not a hinderance. So why won't he engage rather than destroy?
